My Perception:
This author gives the reader a read that will keep one turning the pages. This story is loaded with well-developed characters, has many twists and turns, and leaves the reader trying to figure out the secret mystery of this legal thriller in Atdak, AL.

"The Lawyer's Wife" by Freya Atwood

My Perception:

'The Lawyer's Wife' was quite a complicated story as Alex Peterson 'abandons his career' to find out what happened in his marriage and the death of his wife. We find from this story that Alex will have to go deep into this mystery as he seeks to find out who was involved in his wife's death. If you are into drama and mind-blowing mystery, this story will intrigue the reader. As the story ends, we see this person is still out there. What will this cause Alex to do now, as the truth is out there? The extended epilogue is essential and proves there is much more to this story. The next series will be more about what happens as the three people get more into this case of finding the person who caused all of this mess.

I will leave it here and say you must pick up this read, leaving you wanting an ending soon!

My Thoughts:

'The Fatal Defense' was quite a riveting legal thriller. Lawyer Ethan Hunter has taken on a case involving Gabriel, who has supposedly spiked this friend's drink. Be really for plenty of courtroom drama and twists and turns in this case, where, at times, Ethan didn't know whether to believe his client. Who was this, Gabriel Harris? To find out who he is, you must pick up this novel and see how this author brings it all out. It will be an exciting ending, especially the extended epilogue that will lead one to think there will be more to this ending.

"The Phantom Justice" by Freya Atwood

Legal Thriller:

"The Phantom Justice" was quite a thriller read where you will not want to put it down until the end. We find lawyer Ethan Hunter has lost his wife, but was it suicide or murder? Then Ethan takes on another case where he believes the man, Lincoln, has been framed. Did Lincoln murder his girlfriend? Somehow, the two cases make Ethan feel these two may be tied together, but why did he think that may be true? It seems like no one believed Ethan on either side of the two. Ethan felt his wife was murdered, and Lincoln was framed for his girlfriend's murder. However, two people on Ethan's side were willing to help. But would it be enough to assist in Lincoln's case?

As the story continues, the reader will see how things turn out. I felt sorry for both Lincoln and Ethan. Now, why was that? I don't want to tell you too much more...you must pick up 'The Phantom Justice' and see how this author brings it all out to the reader. The reader will wonder if the two people involved in this murder will escape. And after all that has been said and done with this case of Lincoln, will Ethan get off with what he has done? The story gives one a lot to think about long after the read.

"Verdicts & Vengeance" by Freya Atwood

My Sentiments:

This is three separate series: Reaper of Justice:

"Reaper of Justice' was quite a crime thriller that will keep you turning the pages to see what was going on next for Megan Corver, a District Attorney trying a case where she was defending a young man for murder. It was good to see how well this attorney sought after the truth while working on Oliver's defense.
From this murder, there will be another one where it seems like this may 'reflect on her family as well,' giving the reader one exciting ending. Be ready for lots of suspense; with some twists and turns, the danger will have you shaking your head and saying, wow. The characters are well-delivered and defined, and the reader is caught up in the storyline. If you like crime thrillers, you may select 'Reaper of Justice.'

Next, we have Ruthless Justice:

Again, this author gives the reader another suspenseful, compelling, emotional thriller with action, twists and turns, and unraveling secrets that will keep you wanting more. Ruthless Justice has a well-developed storyline with an excellent cast of characters and scenes. I especially enjoyed the courtroom scenes with the interplay between the two lawyers. It was pretty interesting as family secrets came out about Megan's sister Catherine, with a few clues that would be revealed due to a cold case dear to Megan. Megan, a defense attorney, will defend her sister, so be prepared for quite an 'emotional roller-coaster ride' as the reader will be taken on one unforgettable ride. How will this author bring this story out to the reader? You must pick up 'Ruthless Justice' to see how well that is done.

And lastly, we have the third series...Vengeful Justice

All that is left to say is to get all of this story; I would suggest you read this author's novels 'Reaper of Justice, Ruthless Justice, and then end with Vengeful Justice' to get the complete tale featuring Lawyer Megan Corver with her family Cathy, her son Lucas, and their father. The secondary characters, Uncle Jime, Aiden, Taylor, and Jasmine, were well-developed and defined. Be ready for lots of courtroom drama, twists, and turns all over the place, with a strong female lead and suspense that will keep you turning the pages. All that is left to say is, by the end, will we find out who killed Megan's mother?

What is left to say about this series is that the conclusion and the extended story put the icing on the cake, giving the reader an excellent read.

"Justice in Doubt" is another of this author's good reads as we see Maya Jones taking on the job of being a lawyer as she finds out who shot her husband, Evan, five times, who was a captain in the police department. Be ready for an exciting read as Maya, working with another lawyer, Michael discovers this was not an ordinary shooting that had happened to her husband. Still, Evan was the victim of a hitman. As the story goes on, the reader will see many twists and turns as Maya finds out this situation had something to do with her parent's accident that had killed them many years ago. This is quite a page-turner mystery with crime and suspense hanging all over the place in the action-packed courtroom drama...so one will have to keep up with the read so that all questions will be answered very well by the end. To truly understand what has happened in this series, I would suggest you start reading from Book 1 through Book 4 to get the whole story of what has happened up till now.

The extending epilogue was good...in showing that this couple...Maya, Evan, and Emmy finally get something they want on Monmouth Beach.

Why was this new lawyer not wanting any help from James? James had so many problems with this BUSA group which involved Garvin Celeste. What was that about, and how did it tie into this particular case they were working on?
